Craning for Cranes

[Gary Brower]

CoBirders,

With all of the recent posts regarding Sandhills, I was wondering if there were a “reliable” place in Arapahoe/Douglas counties where one might find the cranes? Most of the posts I’ve seen have been “incidental” — i.e., seeing/hearing them overhead. I’m just curious as to whether there’s a place they like to "set down” before Monte Vista?

Thanks!

Gary,

There were a few at Rocky Mountain Arsenal Wildlife Refuge on Saturday, and I saw many of them flying over there today as well!
